Sound is everywhere. It surrounds us, shapes our emotions, carries information, and connects us to the world\u2014even when we hardly notice it. Yet behind every sound lies an invisible world of waves, vibrations, physics, perception, and technology waiting to be explored. The ANGUS lab invites you to delve into this fascinating world, in cooperation with the 3AI group<\/a> . Together, we make invisible sound waves visible, explore how sound behaves and experiment where curiosity meets science, technology and creative exploration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lab Persona<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For us, every lab is more than just a name \u2013 it\u2019s a persona. ANGUS is energetic and never afraid to explore new territory or turn up the volume on unconventional ideas. Driven by curiosity, ANGUS embraces a holistic view of acoustics \u2013 combining analytical thinking, creative imagination and collaboration across disciplines.<\/p>\n\n<\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Hands-on with Audio<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ANGUS LearnLab provides an experimental environment where students explore sound through hands-on measurements, immersive listening experiences and interdisciplinary experimentation. Equipped with a 3D speaker arrangement, an ambisonics system and state-of-the-art audio technology, the lab enables students to investigate acoustics from fundamental wave physics to real-world applications in immersive media, health, engineering and <\/p>\n\n<\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Imagine a musician and a data engineer collaborating on creating an immersive concert experience where sound adapts in real time to the audience and the environment. From the emotional power of music to intelligent sensing systems, acoustics connects physical phenomena with human perception. In ANGUS students develop the knowledge and practical skills to tackle real-world challenges through experiments in an anechoic chamber or outside field measurements. They investigate wave propagation, measurement techniques, signal processing, data analysis and AI \u2013 transforming sound into meaningful insights and innovative applications.<\/p>\n\n<\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Meet the expert<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Christoph Humer is the lab expert and lecturer for the ANGUS LearnLab. As a mechatronics engineer, he has spent several years researching wave propagation and structural vibrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He aims to create an environment where students feel encouraged to ask questions, experiment, and discover acoustics from multiple perspectives. Together with his students, he explores the field from its physical principles and measurement technologies to intelligent data-driven methods and AI-powered acoustic systems.<\/p>\n\n<\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-21009","lab","type-lab","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nANGUS \u2013 Acoustics Lab | IT:U<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"ANGUS \u2013 Acoustics Lab at IT:U Linz.
